Customer Ratings & Reviews

I really like this Linksys router. I have had a lot of problems with glitches in other routers, but this one has been trouble-free. You shouldnt have to do do anything after you set one up and I an grateful for its lack of isssues.

I bought this because I had a lot of Reward Zone points I needed to use and figured this would be a good product to upgrade my home WiFi. I had really good performance with my "G" router but thought having a "N" router on not 1, but 2 bands would keep one item with a heavy download from effecting anything else I was doing. So far that seems to be working as intended but its only been 1 day. Now the negative - the setup software. My previous router was a Linksys that installed and ran for 4+ years w/o a problem so I went with Cisco/Linksys again. Unfortunately the setup didn't go smooth at all. I've got a Mac laptop with the latest OS X (10.8.2) and the setup disk said it didn't support it. I thought, no problem, I'll just d/l the latest version however I got the same error message again. Turns out the installation file was last updated over a year ago. I searched their webpage for a solution, no luck. I started a chat session for help but all they told me to do was d/l the file again that already didn't work and try and sell me extended coverage for something that wasn't even working yet. I next called one support line that only wanted to sell extended coverage and then finally reached another that I could barely understand because English was their second language. After over an hour on the phone I was able to manually set the router up. It was a difficult, frustrating process that all told took 4 hrs for something that should have taken 10 min. This would have been 5 stars if it had worked as advertised and even 4 if tech support would help instead of trying to sell extended coverage. I can't recommend this when there are other products that have to be easier to setup.

I do business with my internet as well as surf the internet and play games. I also download music. I have not had any problems with it and it is very fast. I have a computer, 2 iphones and 2 iPads linked into it.

It seems to work very well. Have never had any problems with it

Worked fine initially, easy to setup and good performance. Then over past month our Internet experience has been poor. I kept blaming the provider yet they kept testing the connection as excellent. After replacing the 6 month old Linksys E2500 everything is working fine again. Sad that these things are so disposable they cannot even last 1 year.

Being somewhat electronically challenged, I was able to get this router going, in minutes (if not seconds). I have tried others before, and I had to return the products. If I can do it, anybody else, can.

We live in the country and needed Internet Service. Our local provider could not provide any DSL service. We contacted WISPER.NET and opened an account. They set up our service, connected in a matter of minutes and the router works great. Very good router for both Wireless and Ethernet .We use this router to stream video to Apple TV.

Bought this router because my previous router was pushing 10+ years of use. Immediately after plugging it up for use, I fell in love. I could finally get wifi ANYWHERE in the house.

I liked that this wireless router walked you through the set-up step-by-step. It made it quick and easy to get online. It looks stylish too, which is a plus. No bulky ugly routers for me!

I needed a new router and this works as advertised no issues and easy to install. Can't say much else but a great product.

I just purchased this router today. It works great so far. Set up took only 10min. It provides a CD-Rom that quickly walks you through the easiest set up process ever. Seriously, you plug this thing in and you're done. So far, my service throughout my apt works well. I'm up to 4 and sometimes 3 bars when I'm using my wireless devices in other rooms away from the router, so it's not perfect but I've had no service/connectivity issues. It supports all of my streaming devices as well (samsung blu ray, roku, etc). By the way, my apt is about 1300sq ft.

It was very easy to get started with this router. We initially had OK speeds in the spare bedroom 30 feet away. We consistently got 15-20 Mbps for download vs. a hardwired ethernet connection speed of 40-50 Mbps. Signal was also ok with 3/5 bars in that same room in some computers and 2/5 with some other devices. However, over the course of 6-8 months the speed deteriorated. I finally pulled the plug (pun intended) when speeds went from 6-8 Mbps to 1.5 Mbps over the course of 2 days. Two days ago, we switched from this router to Netgear R7000. Much faster now by getting 30 Mbps of download speed and 4-5 signal bars in the same location. Yes, the Netgear R7000 is much more expensive at $130 extra, however, it has been well worth the savings in frustration.

I had problems with a previous router and I got this one to replace and haven't had a problem with it since installing it

I had a router go out at my house and this one picked right up where the other left off. Great router at a decent price.

I bought it with my iPad and love it so far I can use my iPod and iPhone off of it as well. The price was right and it was easy to set up.

It is very easy to set up and gives a reliable connection at a high speed. Price is good for the product.

I've bought several of these to install at customers' homes and offices. They have all been a charm to configure and always provide plenty of wireless coverage for an average sized home or office. Houses over 4000 sq. ft. might consider a higher powered router or a wireless repeater.

cheapest router that would do the job. range and connectivity is outstanding.

Looking for a low cost but reliable router. This router model did the trick.

I installed it at my house with little difficulty and it has worked just fine.
